Selling 6 Pet ducks

Paul from Rolleston

Selling 6 domestic / pet ducks

ROLLESTON

Price is for all ducks

I have 6 ducks that we need to rehome due to changes in circumstances.
We have had all 6 ducks from new born and they are all between 2 and 3 years old.

We have one male/drake and 6 females/ducks

1 male Indian runner duck
1 female Indian runner duck
2 female Indian runner / muscovy ducks (Cross)
2 female Khaki Campbell ducks

All ducks are healthy and happy.
They live free range (in aviary at night)
They will not fly away, but the Muscovy ducks can all jump a 1 meter high fence if you do not clip the wings
They lay eggs in the spring and summer.
Egg sizes vary between very large and very small

Each breed of duck are related so breeding should be done with other ducks.

They eat grain all year around, layer pellets in the spring and summer.
They eat most human food scraps (Don't give them unhealthy stuff)
They love bananas. Yes, its true (:

They don't make too much noise, but they do quack when scared or hungry.

If you would like to know more then please contact me.

Looking to rehome as soon as practical.
Ducks will not be sold for eating or to anyone who will not look after them. And they must be homed somewhere that has space for them.

The ducks can be moved in boxes, but you will need a large car to fit them all in. Or more then one trip.

Please call or message me on 020 4087 5352

Price: $50

"Sports and travelling run in the family, and that's kind of what's led me to come to New Zealand."

"I grew up in a small town in Finland. My dad was involved with sports all his life, he was a shot putter, discus thrower, powerlifter, we traveled quite a bit when I was a kid. He never mentioned much of the rugby days. He just said he broke both of his shin bones playing rugby, so he said, ‘never play the sport, It's crazy.’

I started playing when I was 18. I played my first cap for the Finnish national team in 2014, we won the Finnish championship with my club. Rugby is not a big thing in Finland.

I moved here to play rugby in 2017. The club that wanted me to come over was Methven Rugby Club. They got me here and they were like, ‘what do you do for work? I’d just finished chef school in Finland. ‘We'll get you a job at Mount Hutt as a chef, you can do that while you play rugby with us.’ I said, ‘Perfect. Yeah, I'm in’.

I've always loved food. My mum was an amazing cook, and still is. When I was studying tourism I worked in some hotels in Finland, and I saw how the chef's worked. I just loved the kitchen vibe and I was like, Yeah, that’d be something I'd love to do.

I've had more of a culinary journey In New Zealand than in Finland. I started at Mount Hutt, after that I worked at The Dubliner in Methven. I worked as a senior pizza chef at Sal’s for maybe six months then worked as chef de partie at Cellar Door. At Eliza's Manor, I worked myself up to a junior sous chef. Then the opportunity came to work my first head chef job at Moon Under Water.

We're privileged to have a busy atmosphere, we can try new things and get a bit creative. There are no TV’s, just come here with your family or with your mates, play board games, to socialise.

I really want to drive the local food and ingredients through the menu. We don't mind spending more for quality ingredients as long as it's supporting New Zealand businesses. We just love to use local. And it's pub food, but I feel like it's elevated.

I play club rugby here for the Christchurch Football Club, the oldest club in New Zealand and I still play regularly for the Finnish national team, whenever they can fly me over to play."
